Collingwood has named its 26-man squad ahead of the round one clash against the Western Bulldogs on Friday night.

New draftee Oliver Henry is set to make his debut in the black and white after impressing throughout the pre-season. The 18-year-old has been a lively target during the Magpies intra-club outings and will add plenty of flare to the forward line. 

Defender Jeremy Howe makes his official return after recovering from a knee injury that saw him miss close to all of 2020, while Scott Pendlebury contests his 317th game.

The Pies medical substitute will be out of the four emergencies; Callum Brown, Darcy Cameron, Levi Greenwood and Nathan Murphy. This will be confirmed one hour before the game starts.

Steele Sidebottom will miss the clash as he recovers from a calf injury at looks to be available for round two.

Don't miss the action on Channel 7 and Fox Footy from 7.50pm (AEDT).
